Benefits of Design-Build Delivery
RCW 39.10.300(1)(b) “Greater Innovation or efficiencies between the
designer and the builder”
Maximum possibility for coordination of design and construction phasing to
provide greatest project value, cost efficiency and design for specialized fire
equipment and processes.
RCW 39.10.300 (1)(c) “significant savings in project delivery time”
Progressive Design-Build is the fastest delivery method. Starting construction
work prior to completion of design results in a significantly reduced schedule.
An earlier completion date for the NMRFA HQ Fire Station will allow greater
efficiency in emergency response services at an earlier date. This is critical for
serving a broader portion of the community as soon as possible.
RCW 39.10.280(2)(a) “Substantial Fiscal Benefit”
The budget is limited to fit within the Fire Authority’s project budget.  The
Design-Builder will be required to design within that budget.
The Design-Builder’s involvement in the development of the scope shifts more
risk of the performance of the project to the design-build team.
With one team managing the coordination of the various aspects of the
project, the Fire Authority’s risk of claims by various contractors performing
adjacent projects are reduced.

During our early programming phase, we engaged an Independent Cost
Estimator to validate our initial target budget.  For the next project
phase, we’ve included a cost estimator on our team, as shown on our
Organizational Chart. Aaron Aston is an employee of our 3rd party
consultant, Hill International. He has recent experience with fire stations
and with many other projects in the greater Seattle area, and is highly
familiar with construction cost trends as they pertain to the proposed
project.

We are at a very conceptual phase in planning for this project, so the
breakdown shown on Page 1 is only an estimate. At this time we have
assumed a construction contingency of 5% to 6%, and we expect the
allocations of cost will change as we align the design with the GMP.
 
Thank you!
